That tanker is but a thimble to me…

G R A C E

It was mid-morning and I was driving to an appointment when I found myself reading those five letters on the back of a tanker truck.  I smiled - imagine a tanker full of Grace! As I passed the truck I could see my small car reflected in the tanker’s polished surface.  I thought; “What would my life be like if that tanker split open and flooded my car with Grace?”

God answered; “That tanker is but a thimble to me, and I’ve given you several gallons already today.”

Every time I start to doubt God’s love and dedication to me, I just smile and remember that tanker full of grace.

It’s awsome to be able to look at life (not just people & nature) and to see God in all of it!
